« While patients wait their turn at the health clinic in Baille Tourible, Ernionne Aimé, the nurse, invites them to participate in workshops to improve their awareness of health issues.  Since she speaks in very clear, articulate Creole, I am able to follow along despite my limited knowledge of the language; this morning, AIDS is being discussed.  A few shy laughs arise when Ernionne asks, ‘how is AIDS transmitted?’ After a brief hesitation, a few venture replies, until one makes everyone laugh heartily: ‘Lè moun fè bagay !’ (‘When you do… it!’) » – Mikaël Theimer.
